devise

I've started to implement a new project using Devise, which is pretty fantastic for handling users. However, when a user signs up, they're not just creating a User model, but also need to create a related Account model that represents the company. Additional users will also belongs_to this Account model.

I can't seem to find a hook for this in Devise, though it seems like a pretty common pattern. What's the best practice for this?
